Re-assembly and test of COMB dipole magnet with STAR® wires

Fermilab is developing the Conductor on Molded Barrel (COMB) magnet technology that works well with round REBCO conductors. COMB-STAR-1 magnet based on STAR wire by AMPeers was fabricated and tested in liquid nitrogen in 2023. The magnet demonstrated >90 Ic retention in the coils (before/after winding). Even though the magnet was not originally designed for operation at lower than 77 K temperatures, it was decided to test it in liquid helium to: - check the instrumentation and the DAQ system; - check the ability to detect resistive transitions or quenches and to protect the magnet; - gather the information on possible magnet design chances and upgrades of the test facility for future testing of HTS magnets. The magnet was re-assembled with a larger iron yoke and the axial supports and tested in liquid helium in 2024 at Fermilab s Vertical Magnet Test Facility (VMTF). It was the first HTS magnet test at that facility ever.

Modeling wiggler with hard edge dipoles

Wigglers and undulators are used as devices for generating synchrotron radiation. They are also used for modification of various beam properties circulating in a storage ring. Basic ‘dumping wiggler’ is used for change of the damping time, equilibrium emittance, and energy spread. In damping wigglers are used to increase the damping rate of the energy spread induced by the beam-beam interaction. The commonly used MAD and Elegant software has only simplified planar wiggler configuration and no model for a helical wiggler.

Mechanical Design of the PIP-II ORBUMP Pulsed Dipole Magnet

The Proton Improvement Plan-II (PIP-II) is a vital upgrade to Fermilab's accelerator complex. The upgrade is designed to power the world s most intense high-energy neutrino beam in future experiments. The magnet pulse repetition rate of the PIP-II injection system is being upgraded from 15 Hz to 20 Hz and requires a roughly 30% increase in the magnetic field of the new Orbital Bump (ORBUMP) magnets in the Booster. The magnet is secured in a vacuum box and the core is made up of 0.127 mm thick, low carbon steel laminations with a C-5 inorganic coating. The core is clamped using external tie bars welded to the core end plates. ANSYS Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was used to evaluate the clamping design to minimize the deflection of the core post welding of the tie bars. The water-cooled single turn coil is electrically isolated from the core using virgin PEEK insulating material in the gap. An investigation into the high voltage performance of the virgin PEEK insulator was conducted. The design of the coil which shapes the magnetic field by acting as the pole tips is critical for the integrated field homogeneity. The coil manufacturing tolerances and fabrication techniques were evaluated to ensure the magnetic properties of the magnet could be obtained. The ORBUMP magnet mechanical design is presented in this paper.

Fast Ramping Accelerator Dipole Models for Fermilab’s Booster Upgrade and Muon Collider

The future discoveries in the field of High Energy Physics are led by the development of new types of accelerators. Around the world, there are a lot of researchers that are studying some possible designs for the future accelerators and some of them are considering the use of alternating current inside the superconducting magnets in order to have better efficiency. The work described in this report tries to compare some superconducting magnets made of different materials and to understand which one of them can be considered for its better performance working in a variable magnetic field. For this goal, becomes really important to control the temperature of the coil, and, as visible in the next chapter, to relate this parameter to the frequency of the magnetic field, in order to find, as will be named, the critical frequency .

Neutron Electric Dipole Moments with Clover Fermions

We present preliminary results for the contributions to the neutron EDM arising from the QCD θ-term, the Weinberg three-gluon and the quark chromo-EDM operators from our ongoing lattice calculations using clover valence quarks on the MILC HISQ lattices. We use the gradient-flow technique to smooth the lattices and renormalize the gluonic operators, and use the Schwinger source method to incorporate the quark chromo-EDM interactions in the quark propagator. For the QCD θ-term and the Weinberg three-gluon operator, we report results in the gradient-flow scheme from 8 ensembles at four lattice spacings and three pion masses, including 2 physical pion mass ensembles. For the quark chromo-EDM, unrenormalized results are presented at two lattice spacings, a=0.12 and 0.09 fm, and two pion masses, M π =310 MeV and 220 MeV.

11 T Dipole for the Dispersion Suppressor Collimators

Chapter 11 in High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) : Preliminary Design Report. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is one of the largest scientific instruments ever built. Since opening up a new energy frontier for exploration in 2010, it has gathered a global user community of about 7,000 scientists working in fundamental particle physics and the physics of hadronic matter at extreme temperature and density. To sustain and extend its discovery potential, the LHC will need a major upgrade in the 2020s. This will increase its luminosity (rate of collisions) by a factor of five beyond the original design value and the integrated luminosity (total collisions created) by a factor ten. The LHC is already a highly complex and exquisitely optimised machine so this upgrade must be carefully conceived and will require about ten years to implement. The new configuration, known as High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), will rely on a number of key innovations that push accelerator technology beyond its present limits. Among these are cutting-edge 11-12 tesla superconducting magnets, compact superconducting cavities for beam rotation with ultra-precise phase control, new technology and physical processes for beam collimation and 300 metre-long high-power superconducting links with negligible energy dissipation. The present document describes the technologies and components that will be used to realise the project and is intended to serve as the basis for the detailed engineering design of HL-LHC.
